United States: Insys posts loss after founder charged in U.S. opioid bribe case

Insys Therapeutics posted a bigger-than-expected quarterly loss on Thursday due to soft demand for its flagship product Subsys, an Opioid cancer pain medication at the center of a federal probe of the company.

Last week, John Kapoor, Insys’ billionaire Founder and majority shareholder, was arrested on charges that he participated in a scheme to bribe doctors to prescribe Subsys. Kapoor resigned from the company’s board on Sunday.

Shares of Insys were up 0.6 percent at $5.12. They have fallen 44 percent since the beginning of the year.

Kapoor’s lawyer has said his client is innocent.
